Does anyone know how to get the airbag light off a Volvo s80, I have an old reader but it's just for codes. I have a Bluetooth vgate plug in too but can't find any good apps to help. Any ideas gratefully received. Thanks

You will need to repair the fault and read the SRS module codes and reset with a suitable scanner. OBD readers will only read the engine control system as there is no set generic OBD protocol for SRS.

Volvo are strange in that most readers will not access or remove codes
My old man purchased or tried a few different ones and ended up buying an Autel one, this was not cheap but it seems to do most of the things he needs

There are plenty of fakes about, with some working and some not. RetroWarwicK's iCarSoft system may be worth investigating. I know his works on a Mercedes, but if it works on a Volvo too, it's worth a shot. Note that if the SRS system is like a BMW, the code will have to be reset by a scanner despite the fault being corrected. |

I have ordered one this morning just for Volvo and saab. Watched it on you tube first from a non involved review. Seems ok but £96 . Thanks for your help.
